Adam Peaty has revealed that his fiancée Holly Ramsay gives him ‘balance’ as he opened up about their relationship – after a bitter wedding fued erupted with his family.
The swimmer, 30, gave an insight into his relationship with the 25-year-old daughter of Gordon Ramsay on World Aquatics’ YouTube documentary series, which follows his journey to the 2025 Swimming World Cup.
Speaking to the camera, Adam said: ‘If I’m racing in trials or I’m racing in another meet, she will just be there in the audience. I’ll be in a different hotel room or etc.
‘I said to myself when we start this season that I wanted her there because it gives me balance, but also not time away from home for three weeks.
‘And as someone going through their fourth Olympics, you need balance.’
Elsewhere in the episode, Holly gave further insight into how the pair met.

She said: ‘So when Adam and I first met, he wasn’t swimming. After the Olympics, in his head, he was done. He was retired.
‘So he took from the Olympics to January off and got back in the water this January.’
While Adam failed to mention his own family in the clip, Holly shed light on the Ramsay clan, comprising dad Gordon, mum Tana and her siblings, Megan, 27, her twin brother Jack, 25, Matilda, 23, Oscar, six, and Jesse, two.
She said: ‘I have five siblings, so the house is constantly chaotic – which is a bit like being on tour. Theres definitely a few quirks to being with a swimmer…
‘Always have to have snacks on hand, if I don’t have snacks then he always gets very hangry so if we’re going out, even on the way to dinner, I need to bring snacks with me.’
She then reflected on Adam’s temperament, saying: ‘There’s definitely times when he just needs his own space, I mean three weeks on tour in a hotel room can definitely feel very small.’
The release of the video comes as the couple have been accused of ‘body shaming’ his mother by his family, after it was claimed she wasn’t invited to their wedding due to her appearance and not having the correct ‘look’.
As it stands only one member of his family is set to attend on the day as a feud between the two families rumbles on.
Adam’s family feud was sparked over Holly’s failure to invite her future mother-in-law to her hen party, with guests including mother Tana, sisters Megan and Tilly and Victoria Beckham

Caroline recently broke her silence to the Daily Mail on the bitter rift that has emerged between her family and the one her son is marrying into.
She told us: ‘I know it’s the end.
‘But please, the message I want Adam to hear is no matter what happens in the future, please know I love you, your dad loves you, you can come home and talk to me at any point.
‘There’s nothing you’ve done that I would not forgive. I love you so much.
‘I hope your marriage is a good one, I don’t wish any ill on you and I want you and Holly to have a long and happy marriage, like your dad and me. The reason I’m speaking out is I want all this to end.’
Caroline is acutely aware of how different her world is from that her son now inhabits, and the family are said to be worried sick about the power and influence of the Ramsay family.
‘He’s in Gordon’s clutches,’ Caroline said. ‘I can’t help but feel like they are pulling him away from me. Their family is very insular.’
